Baby rubs her eyes, a far away sleep

Returning home, her soul to keep

Well, if she cries before the morning wakes

Hold her close, she will not break

Angels on high

Ah, the children these days

Sing to their mothers and dads

With love and lullabies

Angels on high

Angels, there it is

Now old man opens his eyes to a darkened dream

Sees only colors, begins to weep

Baby smiles, the earth awakes

Crystal promise will not forsake

Oh, angels on high

Ah, the children these days

Look into their parents eyes

With love and lullabies

What can you tell me?

What did they say?

What can you tell me?

Ooh, that baby grows up, woman or man

Ever so since life began

Return to sender, come back again

Rainbow child cannot pretend

Oh, angels on high

Ah, the babies born today

Oh, they cover the earth

With love, love and lullabies

Angels, they seek

Angels, they seek

Angels

What can you tell me?

What can you try?

But I'm trying to tell you

Ooh, I miss it, can't just miss it

What did you say?

What did you say?

Angels

Angels

Come back down again
